Power management

Greets,

why is that the power management is so poorly supported in FreeBSD? When
speaking of laptops, this becomes quite essential question.

I can suspend my laptop (Acer Travelmate 212TX), but it doesn't awake
from that state. See

And I won't disable APM because without it I can't check the battery
status.

Will the power management implementation be improved in (near) future?

For other parts FreeBSD runs fluently on this laptop.
